Heimdal fails to compile if any other version of BDB is installed
already.  Also, according to the docs in Heimdal itself, GDBM is an
alternative, but when I install GDBM, configure for Heimdal does not
find it and goes ahead and installs db41.

Have you or anyone else been able to successfully install Heimdal
1.5.2 from the ports tree using BDB?  If so, what steps did you take
that are different from what I did?
